‍️ 20 MISTAKES to avoid when you visit LISBON #118

Hi Tony, thanks you so much for the very informative video. Love them and watch them over and over again to get the details. Me and my husband will be going to Portugual next week for the first time, and I followed your very clear and detail advices to bought our tickets for the Comboios to Porto and the Lisboa Card. May I ask if you could suggest a safe website to buy ticket for Castelio de Sao Jorge before our trip? Many thanks.

Wish we had seen this before our first trip! Will utilize the info on our next trip for sure!😊

Is there a place called Cas Cas close to Lisbon?

Thank you for your videos. I find them most informative and entertaining !

I really appreciate all this great information! It will help make our upcoming Lisbon trip much more enjoyable!❤

I will be in Portugal for a month is there a train pass I can buy to travel with the country

Can you help me with the information as to where I can book Metropol walkway ticket at sunset.

Hello Tony, if we want to take the Elevador de Santa Justa down on the Chiado Baixa direction, where is the starting point of the iron pedway? Thank you.

Thanks!

As a Portuguese from Lisbon, all of this is so accurate! Thank you for informing people on actual valuable information when visiting the city! I hope everyone who goes enjoys it!!!

Thank you for your video(s), which I'm going to watch all. I'll be in Lisbon for a congress and added three days for sight seeing, so tipps to make the most of it are very appreciated. I'm aware this usn't much time but I don't feel the need to visit in everything. I'll most likely visit one or two sights and spend the rest of the day sitting in a beautiful cafe taking the atmosphere in.

Thanks for your help!!

Thank you very much for all the valuable and precisely provided information

thank you. finally someone tells the truth about the timeout market. i have been there once to eat like in 2015 and only because a friend of my girlfriend was here on vacations and she wanted to go there. besides that, only to get pasteis de nata or a ginjinha, since sometimes the timeout market was on my way home. before time out bought the place, i had been to mercado da ribeira like two times - on a university dinner, and on a university party. but the market was closed at night, only with one restaurant open and the possibility of making parties there. so i remember perfectly to arrive at like 8 at night with the market closed, no lights and only an open corridor and a stairs to the restaurant.

jesus in those days never i believed how many people would flock into it. but anyway i dont know anyone who goes there now, and its hard to find friends who have been there. too crowded, too noisy, too expensive and you are not even comfortable to eat. cais do sodre now a days is a place to avoid, except at night. there is still a cafe that sells beer for like 1.20 euros and has cheap meals in front of the square, but im sure it will close eventually for a fancy brunch place or another mexican/peruvian restaurant. but yeah i understand why mercado da ribeira is a hit with its new name, but its almost like eating at a fancy airport with more refined portuguese food.

Music 🎵🎶 is so loudly 😮

excellent! Thank you for your tips and help.

I am currently living in Taiwan and enjoying your program very much. I will travel to Spain and Portugal from October to November. Your program has given me a lots of valuable informations, thank you very much.

In addition to introducing Spain and Portugal, I hope that you and your wife are able to visit beautiful island of Taiwan. I will do my very best to be your tour guide

On the subject of Couvert, does the restaurant charge per person, per table or per order that was brought out? thank you in advance.

I am heading to Lisbon for World Youth Day. I am looking forward to using the information in your videos to help me experience Lisbon to the fullest. Any new advice about Lisbon with more than 600,000 other pilgrims coming to the city from all over the world? 🙂

Thanks a lot Sir your info is very useful

About point number 13, law indicates that if you did not ask for starters, even if you eat them you don't have to pay.
The waiter must ask you when he places the starters if you want them. If he didn't... then you don't pay! Call police if necessary. Usually the restaurant wants to avoid police problems and removes the starters from the bill.
It's about time that restaurants STOP using this scam to charge more.

Hard to believe one can get all this valuable information for free. On a recent trip to Spain and Portugal he was our go to guy for just about everything we did. Never a disappointment.

Wonderful video as always. Thanks.

I have a question, that I’m finding it hard to get an answer to. I arrived in Spain today from Australia, and will soon be travelling to Porto, Ericeira and Lisbon. I can’t find the best way for me to travel from Porto to Ericeira. I have read that I should get a train to Lisbon, then a bus back to Ericeira, but the bus company selling tickets says that the trip will take 2 hours from Alison to Ericeira, though I was under the impression it should only take about 30 minutes. I really do t know how im going to make this work??

Whats the weather like in october?

I’ve just been in Lisbon and I would like to say a big big thank you for all your videos about it, they were the most useful I’ve seen and helped me a lot to plan a visit to the city. (Thanks to them I made only few of the mistakes listed in this video 😂)
Thank you again ❤

Lisbon was great! Was there a little over a week ago. Tap Portugal airline is a disaster. Don't fly Tap

Always excellent and objective tips in another exceptional video! I really liked it ❤

Can you tell me is there direct train from Spain to Portugal?

Thanks again for another great video! Can't wait to be in Lisbon in 2 weeks' time - and your videos have already helped a lot.

Just came back from Lisbon. The Bolt pickup point at the Airport is now at car park 2. We took a Uber instead. As always we used many of your videos for reference. The cod fish cake at Bonjardim was excellent as well as the peri peri chicken. As always thank you for your extremely useful videos. Maybe your lovely wife can give some commentary?😀

Thanks so much Tony! very useful and well put together! Thanks

good evening, my family and I are visiting for a day in June. Could you recommend a few local restaurants that we could try and can the Lisbon card be bought at the Metro?...thank you

Great advice, when In Portugal last year we did follow most of these tips and I agree Manteigaria has a real good pasteis.

Hi Tony i am going again in 2 weeks and meeting a friend who lives there,great advice again muchas gracias.

I just came back from eight days in Lisbon. Very crowded in April 2023. Bus drivers and tram operators are not happy about tourists. I use a cane and often I could not make it to a seat before they took off and I stumbled to grab a pole so I wouldn’t fall. Being a senior I got discounts on many museums. Buy the tourist transportation card it makes life a lot easier.

Thank you for very useful information 😊
